    Olive Bonsai from a stump? Is that a thing?

    I'd love to collect the entire thing. I might hit up Amazon for a cheap mini chainsaw or the reciprocating saw like you mentioned.

    Olive Bonsai from a stump? Is that a thing?

    1st photo I want to collect if possible. 2nd photo was the one leaning on our neighbor's fence. And 3rd one is the cut stump in a 5 gallon pot.

    Olive Bonsai from a stump? Is that a thing?

    There's an clump style olive on our property. One section I cut off with a hand saw as close to the base as I could. It was leaning on the neighbor's fence. 2 hours later, sweating, aching arm, and wishing I had a chainsaw lol. There's another section with an interesting flared base that's...

    UK to US conversion.

    Hi all. This isn't exactly bonsai related, but more of an electrical question. I ordered a diegrinder tool with terrier bit from Graham Potter of the UK. He emailed saying this tool puts out 240 volts, and will not work for me in the states. Is there an adapter that could be used?

    Red Maple Bonsai?

    I'm airlayering one for radial root development. And this one even has a tiny watchdog for protection ...😆 I miss seeing these in NC. I know they aren't the best, but they have the smallest leaves of our native maples.

    RMJ critique needed

    Hi all. It's been some time since I've last posted. Here is my first wiring, and styling of a RMJ. I would like honest opinions, critiques, and a pot selection please. This juniper lacks a lot of deadwood. What are your opinions on adding/gluing/fastening on a piece of jin?

    Are Italian Stone Pines good choices for bonsai?

    I didn't expect to see this thread pop back up lol. I've sort of lost my interest in them here lately, and moved on to JBPs. Maybe it's the knobby, bulbous like trunks, and waiting on them to put out adult foliage.
